Why would you write something like you did? The Rocky Hill I know doesn't fall at all into the category you described, has always provided very helpful information, and lives no where near Winchester, VA.

I agree completely. Rocky Hill has always provided me with helpful, accurate information. Obviously you are on the wrong list and are addressing the wrong person. Maybe you should direct your apparent anger toward the correct source and work on improving your sentence structure. This list is reserved for friendly people who have banded together to promote a common good- restoring classic Chevelle iron.
